Foundation rave!!!!!

So I've been in search of the "perfect" foundation for a long time now. I've tried literally ever mineral foundation -- I like them a first but then I feel like I start looking like crap as the day goes on. I'm 41 and I feel like the mineral foundations make my skin look more wrinkled and dry as the day goes on - and it sinks into my pores. Then I went back to my old Lancome foundation and decided liquid was better for me but didn't really like the foundation I was using. So on Friday I made my way into Sephora and found the greatest saleslady -- she was actually a aesthetician and also works at Red Door in Garden City. She put several different foundations on me - Makeup Forever, Dior (these I had wanted to try) and this


I am totally in love with it.

"Veil Fluid Makeup Oil Free SPF 15
What it is:
A medium coverage treatment liquid foundation.

What it is formulated to do:
Veil Fluid Makeup provides luminous, long lasting coverage for a flawless complexion while fighting the signs of aging.

What it is formulated WITHOUT:
- Parabens
- Sulfates
- Synthetic Fragrances
- Synthetic Dyes
- Phthalates

What else you need to know:
The formulation contains Matrixyl to support the body's natural ability to produce collagen and help reduce the appearance of wrinkles, as well as Skin Tightener ST to improve texture and promote younger looking skin. It is oil-free, parabens-free, fragrance-free, and has SPF 15. "

I'm telling you, I've been using it for 2 days now and my skin has never felt better -- I even feel like I look younger. I won't lie - it isn't one of the less expensive ones, but to me it was worth every penny - especially because I love it.

Also, the saleslady told me you don't need to wear primer with it and that it was a foundation/primer, but I'm always so conscious about my pores so she told me to use Dr. Brandt Pores No More under it. Amazing!!!!
